Abstract
Arnold Hirsch’s landmark book Making the Second Ghetto offers a temporal answer to the question, “What is the second ghetto?” Hirsch argues that the second ghetto, which lasted from 1933 to 1968, was distinguished by federal intervention. Government funds sponsored the creation of high-rise public housing in Chicago, a new source of racial segregation in the United States. Hirsch’s thesis does not fully account for continuing racial segregation in private housing.
